Subject: The One True Reality vs. Polyrealism
Dear Church of Reality members,
People often ask me what it is that's different
about the Church of Reality.
The answer is, we are dedicated to real reality,
the one true reality.
What reality is the one true reality? It's the
real reality, the reality that really is real.
It is the some total of everything that actually
exists. No reality but reality.
In contrast, most other religions are polyrealistic.
They believe in multiple realities.
Realities that can only be experienced by emotions
generated by the imagination.
They are taught to turn their back on what they
call the "material world" which is
associated with being evil and believing instead
in the "spiritual world" and other
worlds of the imagination.
But there is only one true reality and that reality
is the sum of everything that actually is real.
Polyrealism is a cheat. It like saying that there
are other realities that aren't part of reality
and because they are part of a "different reality"
you can't prove they don't exists because
they are untestable.
They call this "faith" but in that context it's
really a call to reject reality. To accept faith
is to turn your back on the real world and put
your imagination ahead of existence.
To be a Realist is to turn your back on your
imagination and put reality first.
And that's what makes the Church of Reality different
from all other religions.
I've made some new videos that I uploaded to You
Tube and Google Video.
They are crudely produced. Just me and my web
cam but I think they get the point across.
